Next up for top recruiting target Bagley: Official Duke visit

NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C.– Marvin Bagley, the No. 1 prospect in the Class of 2018, will take his first official visit to Duke immediately following this week’s Peach Jam.

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski and associate head coach Jeff Capel have sat courtside for all of Bagley’s games, including on Thursday night.

“After Peach Jam’s over, I’m going to take my visit to Duke, see a little bit more of the school,” the 6-foot-11 power forward from Sierra Canyon (CA) told reporters. “I went on a visit but I didn’t really see a lot of [the campus] so this time I will see way more than I did last time so I’m excited about it. And I can’t wait.”
